ZX7's are a great bike and I would say the RR is at cult statis. Yes they do vary in price from $4500 on this forum ATM. They can be a cheap way to get a very capable sports bike. When I am rich enough to call my self piss broke I would not complain about having one. As for a tourer. I have a ZXR 93. To me it is only an old ZX7 and I tour with a magnetic tank bag and soft sports bags on the back. I have travelled from Penrith to the Island on several occasions and I always get annoyed at riders on ST1100's and Goldwings fidgiting about and trying to get comfortable. I have no troubles with sore wrists but then I probably exercise them more than others do.
SO YES THE ZX7 IS A GREAT BIKE...
And I am not calling any one a CU*T or putting shit on their rides.

The 7 still has the reputation as having the best front-end in the business, its a shame they were taken off the market. The 12 is fairly soft with stock settings, but you sure can fix that !! :twisted:
